Overview

Many organisations are in a position where their supervisors have excellent technical skills, but they often lack management skills which are essential to be an effective supervisor. There is increasing evidence that people management is positively related to superior organizational  performance.

This course is designed specifically with the needs of the hospitality and tourism sector in mind. It is ideally suited to existing Supervisors who have not previously had the opportunity to formally develop their supervisory and management skills. Equally, the course will meet the needs of persons who have ambitions to become supervisors.

What is a Module?

A module is a standalone unit of learning and assessment and is completed within one semester. A full-time student will normally study six modules in each semester; part-time and ACCS (Accumulation of Credits and Certification of Subjects) students will have flexibility as to the number of modules taken.

Entry Requirements

This course is suitable to learners who have previously undertaken courses in culinary, tourism or hospitality operations. Applicants with sufficient industry experience may be considered.

 

What is RPL?

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is when formal recognition is given for what you already know prior to starting on a programme or module. With recognition of prior learning the focus is on learning and not on experience as such. You can apply for RPL in any MTU accredited programme or module. Programmes which are accredited by professional bodies or any external awarding bodies may have their own procedures for RPL which you should refer to.
